about

Written at the start of the pandemic.

lyrics

Every place that we know is dark here
Save the stores and pharmacies
We're all so connected now, we're not sure what we believe
Some of us have homes and families
Still more have even less
We rosin up our bows and play our songs under duress

Looking for someone to hold us now
But there's no one left in this ghost town

Every window reflects the emptiness
Every silent street resounds
Every store shelf shows the fate of what's been lost, but once was found
I remember when you said to me things would never be the same
And now here we are all hunkered down by the pilot light's flame

Looking for someone to hold me now
But there's no one left in this ghost town
Take a minute and settle yourself down
It's just another day in this ghost town
